Startingoff our list of worship songs about unity, we have 1000 Tongues by Vertical Worship. These lyrics convey unity in a powerful way, by emphasizing that all people, regardless of their past, have been forgiven through the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross. This forgiveness brings people together, under one name, and allows them to find unity in their shared faith and belief in Jesus as their savior.
The lyrics also convey that through the forgiveness that is available at the cross, people can find freedom from the things that have previously separated them, such as sin and sorrow, and in that freedom, the chains of division are broken, and sorrows are swept away.
Furthermore, the lyrics remind us that the cross is not only a place of forgiveness but also a place of victory, where sin was defeated and death overcome. This message of victory over sin and death is a powerful reminder of the unity that is possible through Jesus Christ, and can be an inspiration for worship leaders to guide their congregations in experiencing the unity that is available in Jesus.
In the Bible, the concept of unity is emphasized throughout the New Testament. The book of Ephesians, for example, talks about how in Christ, there is no longer Jew or Greek, slave or free, male or female, but all are one in him (Galatians 3:28). This verse and others like it, emphasize the idea that in Jesus, all people are united under one common identity as children of God, regardless of their background or past.
These lyrics emphasize the unity that can be found in the Bible, as believers from many different backgrounds, cultures, and generations come together to form one family. We are all children of God regardless of our differences, and united by His blood. Galatians 3:28
As believers, we are all part of the same family, united in our faith and united through our worship of the one true God. The Bible teaches that all of us, from every nation and generation, have been brought together under his grace and love. We can draw strength from each other as we are reminded of our shared purpose in Him. Romans 15:5-7,
We can be an encouragement to each other as we share our experiences and support one another in our faith. The Bible encourages us to seek out fellowship with others, so that together we can grow stronger in Him.
This verse refers to the saints who have gone before us, who are watching us and cheering us on as we run the race of faith. The verse is encouraging believers to follow the example of the faithful men and women who have come before them, who were able to overcome sin and obstacles through their faith in God.
This is a beautiful worship song about unity among believers. These lyrics align with the biblical teaching of unity in the Church, specifically in the context of worship, where the Church is united in its worship and in its relationship to Jesus, the bridegroom, and through the power of the Spirit. New power and new wine symbolize a fresh start, one that is free from divisions.
This reflects the idea that God has dominion over all, reaching even those we feel are furthest away from Him. These words also show how our faith can be used to battle evil and bring about change, similar to John 12:31, which states
These lyrics can be seen as an encouragement to the congregation to focus on the presence of God in their lives, to recognize that it is through his breath that we are able to give him praise, and to join in the universal call to give God the glory, honor, and praise that he alone deserves. They also encourage the congregation to join in the universal call to give God the glory, honor, and praise that he alone deserves, in unity with all of creation.
With all the additional moving parts that come with planning a worship service, we want you to have the peace of mind to know that your team is going to show up, fully prepared knowing every part for each of the songs on your set.
Our online platform provides high-quality, professionally recorded tutorials, lessons, chord charts and tabs for these and hundreds more. You can perfectly learn your instrument and vocal harmony parts in minutes, not hours.
This is a great worship song (I personally love this song!), and a great one to play as a part of any worship team, in front of your church, or just learn by yourself to sing along to whenever you'd like.
Who You Say I Am is another easy song you can learn to play on guitar without too much struggle. The chords are fundamental, core chords that you'll have to learn at one point or another (or should already know if you've been playing for a period of time!)
Note: All of the songs from this point onward will be played with 4 chords. Even though I could've simplified a few of them even more into just 3 chords, they just wouldn't have sounded the same. I decided to do all I could to keep the "essence" of the music.
You'll notice that the remainder of the songs listed here sound a bit "richer" than the first song we simplified down to only 3 chords (Amazing Love). Even though Amazing Love still sounds good, adding an E Minor (Em) into the chord progression would significantly improve the sound. Just my two cents!
As I mentioned in the previous description (Who You Say I Am), every song from this point on is going to have 4 chords instead of 3 (giving them a richer sound, and having them all sounding even more like the original!)
Once again, these aren't tricky chords. After practicing for a few hours (this is, realistically, how long it should take if you're new to this - perhaps a bit longer), you'll be able to have these chords down pretty well.
When I was learning my first chord progression on guitar, it took me roughly a week (practicing an hour or so a day), until I could play the chords without looking at the frets, purely by muscle memory.
This song is a little bit more difficult in that it doesn't have a "rotating" chord progression. When I say rotating, I mean playing the same four chords over and over again in the same order each time.
And we finally come across our first 5-chord song! Don't worry, it's not as scary as it sounds. And if you've been following along with some of the earlier songs I mentioned, you should already have G, C, Em, and D down.
The lyrics are easy to remember once you've heard the song all the way through at least one time (but with the chorus, you can even pick that up on your first time singing this song due to it repeating).
[Chorus]
Holy there is no one like You
There is none beside You
Open up my eyes in wonder
Show me who You are
And fill me with Your heart
And lead me in Your love
to those around me
Cornerstone by Hillsong is a great worship song -- I personally love singing it! This is a more upbeat song that would fit in great as the last worship song when closing out your set (if you'll be playing this with your worship band).
Bar chords definitely aren't easy to play; check out the chord chart for F#m and B below. A whole bar for F#m on the second fret, and a five string second fret bar for B. There's some difficult guitar notes there!
To get around this and simplify this song to a playable beginner level, what I did was transposed the entire song down 9 half steps (-9 transpose). This brought it down from E to G, giving us the same chords we've been playing the rest of these songs in!
Mighty to Save by Hillsong United is a worship song you've very likely heard or sung along to in the past. I listen to it on my local Christian radio station all the time (K-LOVE) and have sung it (and played it!) numerous times in our church's worship segment of the service.
[Chorus]
Savior, he can move the mountains
My God is mighty to save
He is mighty to save
Forever, author of salvation
He rose and conquered the grave
Jesus conquered the grave
I classify this song as being at a true beginner level. There isn't any quick chord switching anywhere in the chorus. The verses of Everlasting God don't have any fast chord switches either, except for the last two lines of each verse (where there's a quicker transition).
[Verse]
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord
As we wait upon the Lord
Strength will rise as we wait upon the Lord
Wait upon the Lord
We will wait upon the Lord
Our God, You reign forever
Our hope, our strong Deliverer
[Chorus]
You are the everlasting God
The everlasting God
You do not faint and you won't grow weary
You're the defender of the weak
You comfort those in need
You lift us up on wings like eagles
"God of wonders beyond our galaxy...", as the song goes! This is one of my favorite worship songs. It's easy to pick up and play (using our same four chords once again), and it's a little more upbeat allowing it to fit in the middle of any worship segment easily.
I want to point out, though, that this is a more advanced song. If you look at the guitar tabs I listed, you'll notice that there are a lot of tougher techniques listed such as hammering guitar strings and sliding.
[Chorus]
God of wonders beyond our galaxy
You are holy, holy
The universe declares Your majesty
You are holy, holy
Lord of heaven and earth
Lord of heaven and earth
Reckless Love by Cory Asbury is another great worship song I like to sing (and play, as a matter of fact!) It once again revolves around these same four chords (Em, D, C, and G), making it simple to play once you get these chords down and mastered.
I would classify this song as being in the beginner range, because you switch between chords at a "medium-slow" pace when playing each verse and chorus (there are chord switches every few words of the song if you take a look at the tabs I provided).
I would highly recommend starting with this song if you're just beginning to learn some worship music. The chord progression for the verses and the chorus is exactly the same, making it easy to master.
